Haydock Finance lending book passes £1bn milestone

Haydock Finance has passed £1 billion in its lending book, marking a new milestone for the UK asset finance lender.

The company said the £1 billion threshold follows a period of significant growth and reflects continued support from its introducer network and shareholder.

Haydock has also highlighted the contribution of its long-standing broker relationships to its growth, including introducers that have worked with the lender for more than a decade.

John Devlin, Associate Director at Allied Finance (UK), which has partnered with Haydock for more than 15 years, said: “Reaching £1 billion is a remarkable achievement for Haydock, and we’re proud to have been part of that journey.

“Our relationship has always been built on trust, collaboration and a strong desire to help SME clients succeed.”

Greg Viviers, Managing Director of EFT Finance, which has worked with Haydock for the past decade, added: “It’s great to see Haydock reach £1 billion and we’re proud to have played our part in that growth.

“The market is competitive, but there is a real opportunity for finance providers that understand what brokers and their customers need and can deliver when it matters, consistently. That has been central to our approach at EFT and is a big part of why the relationship with Haydock works so well.”

Andy Taylor, Managing Director and Chief Commercial Officer at Haydock Finance, said the lender had sought to maintain its approach to brokers and customers as the business expanded.

He said: “£1 billion is a fantastic milestone for Haydock. We’ve grown significantly over recent years, but we’ve done that without losing sight of what makes Haydock different – being easy to deal with, knowing our customers and brokers and finding ways to get deals done efficiently.

“I want to thank everyone who has played a part in getting us here, particularly our team, our partners and our shareholder for their continued support and backing. It’s a milestone we can all be proud of, but we’re not standing still.”
